About Martha

Martha Kuhn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 18 years of experience. She offers a warm, interactive approach and aims to treat people with sensitivity and respect. Many clients come to her for stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and relationship challenges.

Her work also addresses trauma and abuse, parenting struggles, career concerns, addictions, grief, and attention-related issues. Martha helps people who are dealing with major life changes, chronic caregiver strain, or difficulties with eating and sleeping. She also supports people coping with complex family-of-origin problems and boundary or control issues.

Martha blends several practical approaches to match each person's needs. She uses client-centered methods to hear what matters most, cognitive-behavioral techniques to change unhelpful patterns, and elements of dialectical behavior therapy for strong emotional moments. She also draws on motivational interviewing and solution-focused steps when goal-setting and momentum are needed.

In sessions she aims to make things clear and doable. Conversations are straightforward and collaborative. She avoids labels and focuses on what a person wants to change and how to get there.

Martha is licensed in Arkansas and Louisiana and is working on a coaching credential while coauthoring a book about a whole-brain approach. She offers care in English and accepts international clients, and she will help tailor a plan that fits each person’s life.

Online approaches that focus on practical change

Martha uses client-centered work to keep sessions focused on what matters to the person. That approach means the conversation starts with the client's own priorities and aims to build on strengths and goals.

She also uses cognitive-behavioral therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and applies clear strategies to change patterns that cause distress. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep or eating difficulties.

Dialectical behavior therapy elements are used when strong emotion regulation skills are needed. These techniques teach specific skills for handling intense feelings and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Martha will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means adjusting the focus over time based on what helps most.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can use these benefits to help maintain momentum between appointments and practice skills in everyday settings.
